ALRIGHT TECHNO.

Even for sitting a year, it's clean dude.
You must save that auto.

Thanks for the pics..., VERY very nice man.

Auto? Huh? She's a 5-speed manual. It actually looks a bit nicer in the pics. I really need a new front bumper, lip, and some serious paint. The passenger side mirror is all tore up too.

Thanks for the compliment! More pics once I go back home and put in the rad, injectors, maft pro, ddp, and other stuff. Then it's dyno time!


Anyone have a spare crankshaft pulley they want to sell? Mine looks like someone, or something, bit a chunk out of it.

Save the auto: save the car. a$$

Dude my 91 in is in good shape and trust me so is yours as far as body work goes.

My spare crank shaft pulley looks like something bit it as well. I had to sac up for a new one.. The are expensive. I think mine was almost 250 bucks. It may have been 280$ I don't remember.

I'll sell it though..., lol. Your engine bay looks to be in good shape. Have fun cleaning those helicopters out of the back of the hood. Those things are a pain and everytime you clean em up..., new ones magically f-ucking appear.

It's a vicious cycle.

Edit: You should upgrade to treated wooden hood supports, lol. I used to use an old fishing rod handle. I even saved it, just in case. Perfectly fit underneath the hood with it closed.

Hilarious! You had me laughing my arse off. Luckily, a guy on SM is gonna sell me one in good shape for $35 shipped. I used to have the UR underdrive pulley but I sold it right away because I heard nothing but bad things about it.

I keep looking at the pics and thinking I want to gut the entire car and paint/powdercoat everything. Then remove anything I can such as emisssions and other bs. These cars are never ending projects that constantly drain the wallet.....but I love 'em.

I didn't know the never ending story had a fantastical supra in it.
It does now. I keep finding things that I didn't do quite right, by trying to get ahead of the car.

Work at the cars speed.
Use the force.

Just remember. Little things first. They're cheaper. Wasn't so lucky with my last project. Your car looks like what mine can look like. I'll post some of the dealer's pics tonight.

where did you order the piping with the bov outlet on it at?
i need one like that, the only one i can find similar to that one is a long one for like 80 bucks.
and did you ever get the car running?
i did a turbo swap on mine and i cant seem to get mine to build any boost.
